Mew - Nervous - NEW (Secret track)

[fezzland]

I love how songs can become even more beautiful when played backwards, it's such a different sound



[herbrightskies]

damn, I knew it all the timeeeeeeee

[jingles5492]

omfggg i took new terrain .. REVERSED it and its this song

how?!?!

HOW

and when they did live

omg man omg

[ilovethebeatles09]

Wow can't say that I'm surprised Mew made a song that can be played backwards. I can honestly say it is the ONly backwards song I've ever actually enjoyed. Mew, I just really frigging love you.(:

[Exclavion]

I think this is about being nervous that you would spill your drink while you were experiencing the apocalypse in Hawaii after scoring a great new album whilst on vacation.

[YourHomieHenry]

i diggs.

[JimTH80]

Hey,

Does anyone why 'Nervous' isn't part of the album,

I really like both songs and I think the idea is nothing short of spectacular,

so I don't get why they only put 'New Terrain' on there :S

Do you know something I don't??

Thanks and Merry Christmas mates

[kaneli2000]

The most amaizing thing to me is that both Nervous and New Terrain have quite understandable lyrics.

[Sadsic]

i would like to figure out how to make a song forward and backwards like this and do a whole album like that

[luisale130]

This song  is about humanity..because we think we control our lives ..adn itsn't..

the song says something about politiks..In my opinion..

[SuperiorSwagon1]

I'm thinking Denmark must be some crazy place like Narnia to make such powerful and enchanting music like this! Does anyone know if they are making another album yet? I need moooore.

[SuperiorSwagon1]

I just love everything these guys do.

[danieeel31]

I can hear something in the background!

''Argue argue. I've never been as nervous. Unleash the power, see you.''

Can anybody else hear it too?

[JimTH80]

@danieeel31 Hey mate, I don't think I would have heard it if you hadn't made me aware of it,

but now I can totally hear it too and it kind of creeps me out a bit, how about you?

and what do you think it means??

Merry Christmas mate

[danieeel31]

@JimTH80 I have no idea what it means either. :P I'm so proud that I found something ''hidden''! ^^

And as a reply for your other comment, Nervous can be found at the vinyl album. :)

[AnikaKyronseppa]

@dcsk8rforu kill yourself

[tcedmonds]

Circa Survive's House of Leaves backwards is CRAZY

[Maskedoom]

this is fantastic. really nice.

[dogeymon83]

What's really clever is that whether your play it forwards, or backwards, there are two vocal tracks playing simultaneously (both forward and backwards).

[dogeymon83]

I just reversed it in LOGIC! I made a copy for my iTunes! THIS IS GREAT!!

It makes me want to reverse everything I listen to.

[ghostgate82]

U might find some unexpected shit if you do...

[dogeymon83]

I reversed Starflyer 59's GOLD album. HAUNTING!! But nothing unusual. You can't understand Jason Martin very well frontwards on that album either.

But listening to INDIANA, track 9, it made me want to cry.

[satellitesignal]

@dogeymon83 Curiosity killed me. I had to try the Gold album...might I say this is rather creepy.

[satellitesignal]

@dogeymon83 Curiosity killed me and I had to try the Gold album. Might I say...I'm thoroughly frightened right now...

[lukey7717]

Kinda sounds the same as New Terrain. Cool idea though!

[Bigassrobot]

That's because it is New Terrain.

New Terrain was recorded backwards, so when played in reverse its a new song called Nervous.

[retroremo]

Beach is their next single

[Shizukasama22]

this is amazing!

[Rockerosito]

i think its more creepy but smart ? that vid....repeaterbeater....the concept xD.....some ppl say they were really imnotized or wharever its spelled xD......

[Fisherdude993]

this is creepy.....

[dinaownsyou]

Its a little bit creepy. But hauntingly good. Go Mew!!! (Y)

[FrumiousThoughts]

They are so f*cking cool.

[epa1214]

So is this "new terrain" played backwards or something?

[arcanum23]

man.. their musics are weird. but good.

[xxmushroomcloud]

This is cool, but I think I prefer the backwards version.

[seirituu]

うわぁ凄い。鳥肌立ってきた

[youTrup]

who?

[geddyleesays]

Pretty righteous.

Love it.

Tried to find a plug-in for Winamp to be able to play it backwards myself, but to no avail.

[Darmst]

@geddyleesays

Use the free audacity program to reverse it manually

[mrminion123654]

Radiohead did this on "Like Spinning Plates". Both bands are badass.

[sundogsteve]

also Stone Roses with "Don't Stop" on their self titled

[Qasmus7]

They should have made a regular version of this the closing track of the cd

[youTrup]

but this backwards-played track does not make such explosion like REPRISE does.... listen and compare yoself man

[djbethell]

It's called being up your own arse.

[geddyleesays]

Oh get fucked, Nancy Drew.

[haandkantslag]

Sonic Youth released an ep in the mid 80´s with 5 tracks that both worked forward and backwards. + loads of other bands have done so too after.

Big deal.

[GreyShampoo]

Cry every time, the nerveus I know" comes.

It's like an adult who comforts you, after you had fallen on the bike as a child. Comforting. Safe. Home.

[corovanmoro]

I see New Terrain from the perspective of a child who is amazed with the wonderful world around him and is determined to explore as much as he can with his friends.

Then, Nervous, seems to be from the perspective of the same child but now as an adult, and now with his own child. He gets nervous, because he loves him so much, he wants nothing to happen to him. He forgets that his child is a dreamer and explorer, just as he was.

It's beautiful :')

[arrepe7]

@corovanmoro

How?! I want this track! How did this inversion happen? I have the album but how do I get this track?

[corovanmoro]

@arrepe7 You need a program to reverse it, but don't worry, I can send it to you.

[bondanRP]

@corovanmoro wow, that's awesome!

[TomoyoCombo]

@corovanmoro Thats amazing.

Im truly touched by the words you have just said, as i read that i shed tears. Thats beautiful.

[Copenhagen921]

@corovanmoro Wow that is deep. i never though of it that way, but now i see what you mean.

[SuperiorSwagon1]

@corovanmoro Wow, that's pretty deep..but yeah i see something very similar in my head,

[prd1ng]

@corovanmoro dang man, coolest comment ive seen in a while!

[PhoeFira]

@corovanmoro Nice interpretation of a wonderful song. =]

[KnightOfDelusion]

This is such a great idea but I can't really make out the lyrics. Do the lyrics make sense in both versions of this song?

[dropgod26]

yep, you can look up the lyrics for both

[wootlilvamp66]

hmmm i prefure Nervous... maybe because i <3 the lyrics more? idk but both are AMAZING (:

[Berniebrains]

New terrain is most mewish played backwards, infact, a masterpiece backwards

[refforendum]

that is so fucking ingenious

[RetaliationX]

This is such a crazy idea. I love Mew

[mpdissorder]

Thanks xD

I didn't read anything

I just posted

[ZarathrustaTate]

no hay problema amigo

[mpdissorder]

is it played backwards?

if it is, which song?

[ZarathrustaTate]

new terrain

[crayfl]

It would be cooler if it had a satanic message.

[geddyleesays]

hhah

[Robotfan987]

I haven't heard New Terrain yet, but even if this is a backwards track, it's better than so many other songs out there these days. Mew is the best.

[crayfl]

Does inverted mean played backwards?

[flaviosk]

yes ;]

[geddyleesays]

yezzur

[maxmilianjames]

thiss is aweeesome!!

[OzricSpacefolk]

Thanks for doing this. This track sounds good either way.

[shittybrat]

amazing
